Congenital atresia of the left main coronary artery is a rare coronary anomaly, in which the left coronary ostium is absent and the blood supply to the entire heart is provided by the right coronary artery. We show the images of the coronary CT angiography performed by a 56-year-old man, with evidence of this vascular abnormality. Coronary CT Angiography has gained a major role in coronary anomalies assessment, thank to high spatial and temporal resolution.
左冠状动脉先天性闭锁是一种罕见的冠状动脉异常,其特点是左冠状动脉口缺失,整个心脏的血液供应由右冠状动脉提供。我们展示了一名56岁男性进行冠状动脉CT血管造影的图像,证实了这种血管异常。由于具有高空间和时间分辨率,冠状动脉CT血管造影在冠状动脉异常评估中发挥了重要作用。
